A Political Thread pt. 2

I do not believe this one.
But, IF it is true, then it's too big not to tell you all
 
Remember that group who wanted the UK government to do more with home insulation?

....... Can't remember their name ....... Oh yes Insulate Britain ... and we all remember how the right-wing media portrayed them.. what a difference a year makes
Well yes, the substance of what they were saying was right. Just the means to which they went about to promote their cause didn't win them widespread support.

Disrupting people going to work and sticking themselves to roads is not going win many fans and loses the point of their protest IMO.

Gave right wing media plenty to portray them as environmental terrorists.
 

Selected quotes here, and as ever, beware misinformation:
Kupyansk/E Kharkiv:
Per the UA government, 2850 RU troops and 590 peices of equipment were eliminated in this offensive over the past week.
The RU losses are estimated to be as follows: 86 tanks and 158 armoured combat vehicles, 106 artillery systems, 159 vehicles, 6 aircraft, and 7 helicopters and 33 other equipment, for a total of $675 million USD. Additionally, UA is confirmed to have seized some 129 pieces of equipment, worth more then $43 million USD.
Otherwise, the hard work of demining villages and dealing with the thankful, though abused civilian population looms ahead. UA is working to ensure mail and pension delivery begin operating immediately in the liberated territories.

Izyum/Lyman:
UA troops to the N of Slovyansk have apparently crossed the Siversky donets river at Svyatohirsk, and captured the town. This will place pressure on any remaining RU holdouts and evac routes E of Izyum.
UA troops continue to aggress onto Lyman, with RU forces apparently intending to defend the urban area, and heavy shelling ongoing. UA has apparently successfully crossed the Siversky donets closer to Yampil as well, opening another axis of attack.
There are isolated reports and videos of UA SOF operating near Kreminna across the river, just NW of Severodonetsk. This is the furthest into RU lines we have evidence of UA operating, with a unit ambushing an RU vehicle in the treeline.

Bakhmut:
Fghting continues in Soledar, with RU forces having been pushed back generally to the SE side of the town over the last week, and occupying a small industrial area.

Kherson:
UA continues to advance towards Kherson from the NW direction, fighting is fierce across the bridgehead on the Inhulets, and the NE front remains apparently stagnant over the past 24 hours. RU continues to apparently enjoy more air control, in the form of higher airstrike missions compared to the UA's reduction in them.
Isolated reports of Ru troops surrendering in the NW section of Kherson continue to come out.
Fighting continues SW of Davidy Brid near Sukhyi Stavok, where UA forces already having crossed the Inhulets river attempt to make gains towards the western of 2 major supply highways for RU forces NE of Kherson. This is the highest concentration of RU air power.
